[Rufus69]

Cool, I'm installing. :)

[Rufus69]

Slight problem...It won't take all the code...

I put in <table style="background-color:#EEEEEE; color:black; border:1px solid #BBBBBB" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5"><tr><td valign="top" bgcolor="#BBBBBB"><div style="font-size:50px; font-weight:bold; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif; position:relative; top:-10px">"</div></td><td rowspan="2"><font style="font-size: 10px;">{param}</font></td><td rowspan="2" valign="bottom" bgcolor="#BBBBBB"><div style="font-size:50px; font-weight:bold; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif; position:relative; top:25px">"</div></td></tr>
But it only uses <table style="background-color:#EEEEEE; color:black; border:1px solid #BBBBBB" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5"><tr><td valign="top" bgcolor="#BBBBBB"><div style="font-size:50px; font-weight:bold; font-family:Times New Roman, Times, serif; position:relative; top:-10px">"</div></td><td rowspan="2"><font style="font-size: 10px;">{param}</font></td><td rowspan="2" valign="bottom" bgcolor="#BBBBBB"><div style="font-size:50px; font-weight:
I even tried putting it there manualy, but mysql I guess doesn't like that long of code..

[Rufus69]

Silly SD. :P You forgot to put the query in there. :P

[Dribbles]

What query? would like to install this myself :)

[Rufus69]

ALTER TABLE bbcode CHANGE bbcodereplacement bbcodereplacement TEXT NOT NULL;

That was in the first version txt. :) Works nice now.

[Dribbles]

thnx :) So I just do that query with phpmyadmin then follow the instructions in the text file?

[Rufus69]

Yep. :)

Argh..10 chars...

[Dribbles]

thnx :)

123456789

[SaintDog]

The 10 charater limit was placed in effect for a reason ;) -- to stop short, choppy postings.

[Rufus69]

That's message discrimination! :( :o :p

[Schorsch]

That's message discrimination! :( :o :p

[Schorsch]

hmm doesn't work for me, it completely messes my board up :(

[Rufus69]

Did you do the query?

[Schorsch]

Did you do the query?

yes

[Rufus69]

Hmm....get on the IRC and I'll try to help you.

going to bed now (3:22 am here) i'll try it again tomorrow

[ernestdefoe]

I did the query, and it was succesful, and yet it still has my board all messed up.

[ernestdefoe]

Okay problem fixed. Input the code in again after running the query, and it fixed it.

same here, works now !! thanks

[EyeCrave]

Have you noticed that there is no spacing for the quote. Say you want to put it after some text it is directly against it?

Example:



Testing Testing. Put whatever here

I've put 3 returns (or pressed Enter 3x) after example yet it still touches the word. I've tried added a <br /> before the table and it still does it. Any ideas?

[EyeCrave]

Fixed it... I just put <blockquote></blockquote> around it and all is well now.

[phill2003]

yep again my thanks go out to you.

'installs'

oh and thanks eyecravedvd for pointing that out....:)

[alwafi]

thanks

:cool:

[Bungie]

This doesn't look the same... :(

[imported_TheComputerGuy]

Looks like you got it working right.

But I would love to have this type of thing for vB2....I dunno if you can do that little quote cloud/bubble thing...but it looks hot!

[Ryan McBain]

My question, now that beta 7 is out how do I install this modication? What do I have to change?

[Toky0]

When I try to run the query through the ACP via Import & Maintenance > Execute SQL Query. It says "You are not authorized to execute SQL queries"... Can someone help me out?

you can change that in your config.php :


// ****** USERS WITH QUERY RUNNING PERMISSIONS ******

// The users specified here will be allowed to run queries from the control panel.

// See the above entries for more information on the format.

// Please note that the ability to run queries is quite powerful. You may wish

// to remove all user IDs from this list for security reasons.

$canrunqueries = '';

$canrunqueries = ''ALTER TABLE bbcode CHANGE bbcodereplacement bbcodereplacement TEXT NOT NULL;";



So I put the query like this. ^ ?

[Schorsch]

no!!

put in your user id

eg.

$canrunqueries = '1'

save your config.php, upload to the server.

then you can run querys from your admincp

[Toky0]

lol Sorry. Ive been drinking so I misread what you wrote. Thanks for the help. :)

Dunno mate, I'm using this (http://www.vbulletintemplates.com/mods/showthread.php?t=4375) quote instead. Sorry, I've just registered tonight and not tried this one on v3.

Where can I get this same quote box for version 2.2.9

I followed the link in the first post but thats a old looking quote box.

[bridger]

Finally got this one working, thanks for sidhighwind for the code that finally worked !

Looks good!

[sidhighwind]

no problem...glad to help!!!

[ernestdefoe]

I can't get it to work. It looks for images, and I don't have any images for it. What am I doing wrong? I would love to install this on my board.

[sidhighwind]

first thing you need to do is download the zip file from the first post in this thread. Then if you are using beta seven of vb3 you need to copy my code into the quote template wich is under the bbcodes group.

What zip file. I don't see a zip file. All I see is a txt file.

[EyeCrave]

I've edited the code to work in VB 3.0 Beta 7.

Just download the text file. I've given full credit to the original authors.

[parajsa]

Is there a way that the same box as here will be on the vb2, coz when installing the cool quotes on vb2, the one for that kinda version, is not showing just like this one. Where is the prob?

[Rapid Gaming]

This is sweet, I'm installing it :)

thank you sir!

i will be installing this lovely addition.

[imported_Packetloss]

is there a version similar to this for vB2? :)

[StarBuG]

Any chance makeing this RC2 compatible?

[SB2002]

EDIT: Nevermind, i got it working fully now

[JimmyPop]

I would like this feature on my board. I pur in the replacement


5. Now, find the second [quote] code (with username) and replace whats in the vB Code replacement box with:

what does this mean?? I only see

VB Code Tag
VB Code Replacement
VB Code Example
VB Code Explanation
use {option]?

so I am confused as to where to put this next line of code. When I put it in the Example it Fux up. please help. Also do I need the install any GFX?

[StarBuG]

Is anyone going to make this for RC2 ??

The coolquotes_beta7.txt works for RC2 but it?s not the same used here (looks nice too but I like the quotes from here better)

EDIT: Sorry missed that this was another modification!! I can?t delete this posting so ... ;)

Greetings

Star

[gmarik]

The same problem for RC3

[dimitrisvb]

i think that cool quotes realy justify their name.. :D

i'm new into vbulletin, using vb 3.7, and maybe i'm missing the obvious but when i try to follow the install instructions:
1. Login to your Admin Control Panel
2. Find "Custom vB Codes" on the side menu (scroll down)
3. Click on "Modify"
3. Find the [quote] tag and click on edit
4. Replace what's in the vB Code replacement box with:


(hey! what's the deal here? it doesn't quote my numbering correctly!! :confused:)

I can't seem to find the place i have to be!!
in the side menu of the admin cp i only see "Custom BB Codes" (instead of vB, but i suppose it's the same thing) and therein only two options:

BB Code Manager
Add New BB Code

and thus, no "Modify". In the first one i only see the spoiler tag i have added a couple of days ago and in the second one i still don't see the quote tag :confused:

hm.. is it my novity?
